<p>A new book titled &#8220;Hidden Tribes: A Study of America’s Polarized Landscape&#8221; purports to show that Americans are more politically alike than they are different, that a vast majority of Americans reject &#8220;PC culture,&#8221; and that fewer people have truly radical political beliefs than it may seem.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/10/large-majorities-dislike-political-correctness/572581/">The Atlantic reports that</a> the book is based on a study conducted by More in Common, an organization charged with bringing British citizens together in the wake of MP Jo Cox&#8217;s murder at the hands of a pro-Brexit extremist. The study involved more than 8,000 Americans and had some surprising results.</p>
<p>&#8220;According to the report, 25 percent of Americans are traditional or devoted conservatives, and their views are far outside the American mainstream. Some 8 percent of Americans are progressive activists, and their views are even less typical. By contrast, the two-thirds of Americans who don’t belong to either extreme constitute an &#8216;exhausted majority,'&#8221; The Atlantic reports.</p>
<p>For most of that 66%, the tone of American politics is simply too polarized, and both parties lack the necessary flexibility to handle the country&#8217;s most pressing issues.</p>
<p>There is one thing that seems to unite even more than that two-thirds, though: a lack of interest in &#8220;political correctness.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Among the general population, a full 80 percent believe that &#8216;political correctness is a problem in our country.&#8217; Even young people are uncomfortable with it, including 74 percent ages 24 to 29, and 79 percent under age 24. On this particular issue, the woke are in a clear minority across all ages,&#8221; the study found.</p>
<p>African-Americans, who researchers found were the group most likely to support political correctness, still rejected the idea of a PC culture 75% to 25%. Native Americans were, in contrast, the least likely group to support PC culture; nearly 90% of Native Americans surveyed said they struggled to understand the concept of political correctness.</p>
<p>Overall, More in Common found that what we think we know about political tribes seems to be all wrong. Races, ages, creeds, and classes split very differently than the group expected &#8230; except, of course, for progressives. According to More in Common, progressives are the single most racially-homogenous group, &#8220;more likely to be rich, highly educated — and white.&#8221;</p>
<p>The researchers do admit that the study has some shortcomings: they struggled to come up with one, single definition of what &#8220;PC culture&#8221; actually is, and every group seemed to define it slightly differently for themselves. They also note that your political tribe has a marked impact on your political beliefs, and people who live in &#8220;bubbles&#8221; tend to reinforce each other.</p>
